Not for me.

I have zero interest in coupling some new Web app to any of my other online accounts.

Just let me use a validated E-mail address and a password to use your site, and don't require me to let you hook into any other services I may or may not use.

i'll for sure implement login for jummpp.in itself. Before that though, i think it's a good idea I establish a baseline so I can see how many people actually want to use a separate login. This is one area i am not sure of. Some of my friends like facebook connect, some are surprisingly reluctant (despite knowing it's from me).
I second the request for a non-FB/Twitter login. Two reasons: (1) I cannot access Facebook and Twitter from work. (2) I don't trust new websites with my FB credentials since I am paranoid about how they might spam my friends, compromise my privacy etc. without me even realizing it.

With a validated email account, I would love to test out the site.

Then perhaps openauth or something else that's independent.
